Strengthen Your Local Presence with Expert Citation Services
Expert Local Citation Builder services — including Citation Audit, Citation Building, and Citation Cleanup — to strengthen your local SEO presence and improve visibility in local search results and map listings.
What Is a Local Citation?
A local citation is any online mention of your business’s Name, Address, and Phone number (NAP) — often found in directories, review sites, social platforms, and map listings. These citations help search engines verify your business information and improve your visibility in local search results and map listings. Having accurate and consistent citations builds trust, authority, and better local rankings.
Structured Citations vs. Unstructured Citations
Structured Citations are listings on directories and map platforms like Google Business Profile or Yelp. They display your business name, address, and phone number in a consistent format that search engines can easily verify.
Unstructured Citations appear naturally in blogs, news sites, or social posts. While less formal, they still strengthen your online presence and boost local relevance.
Both types work together to build credibility, improve local rankings, and increase visibility in search and map results.
Rich Media Citations
Rich Media Citations go beyond basic business details by including images, videos, logos, and links. These enhanced listings make your business stand out in directories and map results, attracting more attention and engagement from potential customers. They also help search engines better understand your brand, improving trust, visibility, and click-through rates.
